I'm that tool, and I stand by my remarks. If Satan himself were to commission a soundtrack for Hell, Portishead would be dismissed as, "too extreme." Desonant lyrical nails-on-chalkboard along with the sensation of steel dragging on my front teeth would be more appealing.

My only real disappointment with this game has been the "four button ending." I'd have rather seen the choices you made as a player drive the end of the game rather than buttons. As it is, you get the achievement for simply saving the game, and reloading it to press the other buttons three times.

Kinda OT, but I just remembered Rage hits shelves next Tuesday.

I hope Valve has a very early pre-load; 20+gigs is going to border on the rediculous...but I still can't wait.

I don't think I'd go THAT far. Additionally, they aren't doing anything Bethesda didn't do late last week (i.e. making all the pre-order exclusives available to everyone for under $5).

The whole currency/Praxis thing has me split down the middle. I agree that money and upgrades were relatively easy to come by, but I found it utterly hilarious that Sarif's head of security had to resort to stealing money from Hobos and robbing homes to buy Praxis kits.

How is this horse armour? These are actually useful items to ave early in the game. You're getting all the perks of the Gamestop and Amazon versions, with the reward of the Steam TF2 items for practically nothing. Hell, a Latte at Starbucks cost more.

Court cases set precedents. If a person/entity wants to put their money into something that may change laws and rules for the better then that is their choice and a worthy expenditure. Not all human betterment comes from medical research or feeding a starving child. The 'principle' is that we'll all be better off if a company can't litigate over nebulous words/terms.

I think you missed my point.

That was venomhed's point, got your alt's mixed up?

Probably. Wouldn't be the first time. Heh.

I think I'll try and sort this out over a nice frosty glass of Scroll-a-Cola.
